I am under the impression that pet lovers, especially dog lovers are psychologically not in a sound state. Why else such persons shower their unconditional love on the animal than human beings?
They are shy to show their love and affection to even their spouse but they display positive emotions shamelessly towards the animal.
The reason I am talking about this is because of a news I read today in the local daily. A boy of just 10 years old fell to death while to trying to avoid the neighbor's pet dog. The resident association has issued a strong notice to the residents who own pets, to abandon their dogs immediately.
The pet owners naturally are protesting against this notice without really bothering even to apologize. They are least bothered about the safety of other residents. Rarely they train their dogs.
I have seen the indifferent attitude of the dog walkers who allow their pet to defecate as they please. Do you know about the strict laws in the U.S? The pet owners are supposed to carry tissue papers when they take their dogs for a walk!
But then India is India and Indians are after all Indians-right? There is a strong need to educate pet owners and still a stronger need to introduce various legislation in this vexing issue.

I guess there is a flawed logic with regards to pet owners not showing love to their spouses.Pets show back unconditional love too and there are enough heart rending stories of loyal pets.
The issue of the kid's death is outrageous and needs to be condemned. I too see a lot of pet owners having a holier than thou attitude towards the non-pet lovers/owners accepted ur pet is ur apple of ur eye but then not all ppl like pets.
Having said that I feel abandoning pets is an extreme request. Pets are like kids,if they are well groomed and kept in control there shud be no issues.there r so many kids who are too naughty n create havoc in apartments.. imagine residents association demanding parents to disown them
